I know you like this tape.

Coefficient of drag down, Aera up at equal percentages will net a zero change.
I had to read that a few times. Was there there a squiggle under 'Aera'?

Your analysis is very thorough. The questions I have are:
  • Why 2" below the lowest point?
  • How many inches from the bottom of the drain plug to where 90% of the oil pan/crossmember is occluded?
  • Have you considered that the airdam and tonto were working together (like Porsche experiences with airdam/spoiler)

I suspect eventually wheel spats will be like the 'venetian blind' style of Formula 1 front dive planes, turned 90°.
